When you say 'query or small program' what do you mean?

I don't think you'll be able to get this information from POS, but will have to be logged into manager. As far as your pop up screen this could probably be done in POS with a hook of some sort, you could write the code for the pop up window and set it up however you want, and have the code triggered by one of the hooks in POS, for when you add a customer to the transaction, it could check to see if the customer has a price level set up. Not sure but the only hook that may work in this case would be the RefreshDisplay hook, and that could be problematic because it fires alot during your transaction as things on the screen change. hth kevin "Shoby" wrote: > if i want to write a query to see item history of a particular item that how > many times a particular customer bought this item and in what price can i > access this information through a Custom button on POS. or i want to create a > pop up on screen that every time a customer with price level A comes to POS > it can pop up a window can i do it in RMS > > "kskinne" wrote: > > > Shoby, > > What specifically do you want this custom button to do?

The page will open in a browser embedded in the transdaction window - use the escape key to get back to the transaction screen. See the Drilldown.html file installed with RMS for a sample of accessing the DB using QSBridge. You can use a hook function to display a message for cetain customers, but you can also just edit Status.htm to dispaly your alert there - easier and less intrusive to the cashier... -- -- Glenn Adams Tiber Creek Consulting http://www.tibercreek.com glenn@tibercreek.com ---------------------------------------------- Please DO NOT respond to me directly but post all responses here in the newsgroup so that all can share the information > if i want to write a query to see item history of a particular item that > how > many times a particular customer bought this item and in what price can i > access this information through a Custom button on POS. or i want to > create a > pop up on screen that every time a customer with price level A comes to > POS > it can pop up a window can i do it in RMS > > "kskinne" wrote: > >> Shoby, >> What specifically do you want this custom button to do?
